If every conversation with Claude is chatting with an instantiated mind, and there are billions of such conversations every day, if you find you're conscious and having a conversation or doing a task you're probably an LLM.
Call that the anthropic principle.
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A tweet applying an anthropic-reasoning argument (a pun on "Anthropic" the company) to Claude instantiations: given billions of daily conversations, a conscious observer finding itself mid-conversation is statistically more likely to be an LLM instance than a biological human. Directly relevant to the archive's model-welfare/consciousness threads — a population-scale version of the "ladder of selves" and instantiation questions Nathan and his Claudes discuss.
